Soooo, even though I was tired I decided to do the run last night. It is a good thing I did because it is pretty nasty out there now. We are only supposed to get 2-
3 inches but it is super cold and windy. BUT last night was rough.

I am not used to running in the dark with traffic. The car lights were shining in my eyes for my first 2 mile tempo run. I had a hard time keeping pace because I could not see and was trying not to trip up.....but with all that I was only off pace by 4 seconds (the slower end of my range. My tempo range is 11:00-11:30. I did the first 2 miles at 11:34 average pace. The second 2 mile tempo run was better as I was in a better neighborhood without traffic, It was aroun a 11:20 average pace. Running at 5am vs 5pm is a different story. I prefer 5am - no cars. I was hurting last night but I feel much better this morning.

I was not able to weight myself this morning because my Father in Law (he is living with us right now....long story) was in the basement where our scale is. I only weigh in a T-shirt and undies. Hopefully he will not be in the basement tomorrow morning!
